Carly Simon - Actress lyrics
Some day I'm going to grow up And be every man's dream Some day I'm going to grow up And forget this sad little me I'm going to shine in the spotlight Wear sexy clothes Be somebody everybody wants to meet And no one ever really knows No one will ever know me I'm an actress through and through And to my bones I'm an actress through and through And to my bones Critics will adore me At least they will at first But you see I already know this So it can't never really hurt And if it does, I'm an actress I'll play it nonchalant In the total scheme of things it's insignificant (sure I can take the knocks) Cause I'm an actress through and through And to my bones I'm an actress through and through And to my bones I may not be that pretty now But who's the referee Standards of beauty Will be redefined because of me And then they'll be the scandals Everywhere my name Men will jump from balconies And I'll just shrug and take the blame (yeah, they'll say I died for love) Cause I'm an actress through and through And to my bones Well, I'm an actress through and through And to my bones My acceptance speech will be a milestone Never will such a star Have ever graced the microphone And of course I'll thank my agent The way they always do Though I could have done it without him And that goes for the Academy too And the makeup people and the lighting designers and everybody else Cause I'm an actress throughand through And to my bones I'm an actress through and through And to my bones I'm an actress yeah, yeah, yeah I'll be gracious to the lesser stars And generous to the unknowns And if another actress threatens My position on the throne Well, I don't know exactly what I'll do I don't exactly know But I know that it could turn into One of my most poignant roles Everyone will have their handkerchiefs out And they'll have to leave the theater early And then they'll go home And what'll they do? They`ll have a big glass of alcohol Cause I'm an actress through and through And to my bones And if I make it to the top I won't be overthrown I'm an actress ah, yeah, yeah |
